I think additional emphasis needs to be placed on Epstein's financial connections.

Pam Bondi, just more evidence that shows how totally clueless, ignorant and uninformed the Trump Regime is.

Lots of reality to motivate people into taking action but if you don’t help this nation get education right, you’re building saving democracy on a house of cards. Fascists got to our schools first, leaving a path for fascism that Trump used to ride to glory. We must close that path but it won’t happen if the press keeps missing this.

Whistleblowing teachers have been trying to tell you that fascists took over education four decades ago at WhiteChalkCrime.com and EndTeacherAbuse.org since 2002 to deaf ears.

The fact we don’t cherish teachers enough to protect them is the root cause for democracy’s implosion. This is how we shifted from teachers’ loving values to fascists’ selfish values.

Once people understand where we went wrong and that teachers’ unions are complicit in this - no one can survive otherwise - they will run for school boards in groups of four to take schools over to force democracy on our schools. Young and old with or without children must plant the flag of democracy in our schools that failed to produce citizens for years now.

Educating us about their current wrongdoing is worthy but not enough.

The question is do we have any leaders willing to learn what needs to be done in education to steer the nation back to its good values? Do we have any leaders who understand how angry and hollow and brain dead these schools have made our people? We could if my memoir on my teaching days A Graver Danger went viral in a world where teachers haven’t counted.

Jim, I ALWAYS appreciate your reporting and bringing in guests to lend their different knowledgeable perspectives to current news.

Julie K. Brown, keep digging and bringing truth to light! This is one of the areas of agreement with MAGA. There's a reason that no Administration wants to bring this information to light. Politicians have fallen for lesser reasons! It's time to hold everyone to accountability!

Olivia, as an Independent, I respect you from deep in my heart, for acknowledging the hijacking of your Party as it has evolved into something unrecognizable. Thank you for continuing to stand up and speak out. You are nothing short of amazing!

How much of Musk's supposed knowledge re Epstein is from his extraordinary access to the nation's copius data banks?

Thanks you Olivia & Jim: Great information. Yes when Trump was running for the White House he claimed that the Epstein files would be released. I was just wondering Donald , are you one who has make the client list of Jeff's blackmailing document. Where you messing with little children , you know you said you like ladies on the young side. Just asking. The jail house parlance for molesters of children is "skinners" and they don't last too long in custody. I understand Laura Loomer wants Pam Bondi fired , what is that all about?? Are there more high officials named in the list. You know there were no cameras near Jeff's cell the day he is alleged to have committed suicide. They keep showing the clip where there is a minute missing from the video machine is irrelevant because the camera was no where near Jeff's cell. Do you really believe Jeff did himself in?? Meanwhile as you are not doing much for the betterment of the nation please get some Gold Leaf decor on the ceiling moulding in the cabinet room.

Maybe one of the "real" news outlets should do a FOIA request for the Epstein Files?

What is it with Epstein anyway? Is there a single man in politics who doesn't want to have sex with underage girls? These stories are distressingly similar; Epstein was pimping young women (aka girls) to rich and powerful men.
